About 47 percent of Carson City homes have three bedrooms, with a median of 5.3 rooms, so a typical pack is a three-bedroom house with a kitchen, a garage and closets. O'Brien's crews pack it all or only the rooms you pick, and the free in-home estimate comes with 10 free heavy-duty boxes.

Data: U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2020-2024 5-year estimates.
The Census count for Carson City shows 25,000 homes and roughly 11,800 of them have three bedrooms. That one number shapes most packing jobs here. A three-bedroom home is big enough to hold ten years of kitchen drawers and small enough that one crew can pack it in a day or two.
Most of the work in a three-bedroom house sits in four places: the kitchen, the garage, the main closet and the room nobody has sorted since the last move. The kitchen takes the most careful hands, because dishes, glasses and small appliances each need their own wrapping. The garage takes the most boxes, because tools, camping gear and paint cans are heavy and awkward.
Our crew packs by room and labels each carton with the room it belongs in, so the people unloading in Carson City, Reno or another state put it where you want it. Heavy items go in small cartons and light ones in large cartons, which keeps the stack steady in the truck.
You can have the whole house packed, only the kitchen and the pictures, or box packing only before a sale or storage. Details are on our full packing and partial packing pages. Many Carson City customers pack their own clothes and books and leave the glass and the art to the crew.
Our office and warehouse are at 2277 Glendale Ave in Sparks, about 33 miles and 39 minutes from Carson City by I-580. Your estimator makes that drive for the free in-home visit, walks each room and writes an itemized estimate. On long-distance moves, the crew also makes an itemized inventory and condition report before packing starts.
Carson City families often pack for a sale, a remodel or a downsizing, and the boxes go to storage first. Packed cartons and furniture can go into wooden vaults, 7 ft x 7 ft x 5 ft, in our 30,000 sq ft warehouse. Vault storage starts at $40 per month. See how vault storage works.
If you would rather pack alone, the packing calculator turns your room count into a box count, and the Sparks office sells boxes and wrapping supplies. The packing guides for kitchens and garages cover the two hardest rooms in a three-bedroom home.

The count depends on how full the rooms are. The packing calculator gives a starting number, and your estimator confirms it at the free in-home visit.
Yes. A full pack is usually done ahead of loading day, and the schedule is set with you when the estimate is written.
No. Partial packing covers only the rooms or items you choose, and the estimate lists exactly what the crew packs.
What customers say about O'Brien's
Sonia P.
Talk about organized people. I peeked in the truck about an hour into the job and was amazed at how well organized it was and how many of my things had protective coverings. Our bed is a mechanical one and a nightmare to us, but these guys had no issue with it at all. Although I have no desire to ever move again--but if I did, I would be calling these guys for sure!!!
